Academics, like Steve Blank, at Harvard Business school liked lean production and came up with a a

way of applying it to entrepreneurs and startup businesses.

A highly iterative customer discovery model was created

If customer validation says you were wrong don’t go forward, PIVOT!

And keep pivoting until you have a product customers love.Only then can you go forward with expanding a customer base

and into a successful product

This is an iterative process, it can’t be endedYou must constantly have an idea, build a way to test that idea, measure the affect of the idea and

learn from it.And the goal is to complete every iteration of this

loop as quickly as possible

Build, measure, learn

And it didn’t take the UX world long to focus on lean as a way of

delivering great user experiences

HypothesisAdding sign in with social media buttons will reduce abandoned

registration by 5%

Instead of building the functionality, the buttons went to a temporary page that

did nothing.

Less than 1% of all users even tried to click the button.

Instead of stocking shoes in all sizes and styles Zappos.com ran an experiment.

They took photos of shoes in shops and published them online

If anybody wanted the shoes, they went back to the shop bought them and shipped them to the customer.

Zappps has annual sales of over $1 billion and was acquired by Amazon for $1.2 in 2009

DISRUPT

Page 25: What is lean ux

http://www.datasaversllc.com/wp-content/uploads/hard-drive-pile.jpg

The hard drive industry has been shaped by disruption for over 50 years. The KPI of a hard drive generally is either

speed or capacity.

But by being disruptive and making smaller hard drives even with lower capacity and slower read/write speeds the new

hard drives companies found new markets and new customers. My computer today has less storage than it did 4

years ago.

If nobody had been disruptive the market would have focused on increasing capacity.

Events

LeanUX Meetuphttp://www.meetup.com/Lean-UX-London/Really good meetup focusing on different areas of leanUX. Normally runs once a month, usually perfectly timed for when I’m travelling.

LeanUX NYC 2015About $400 for a ticket for 5 days of conference and it’s in New York. Really varied speakers, not all with a lean or UX background and workshops around practical skills. Will be in early April, probably New Jersey rather than NYC.

Lean Day LondonIf you don’t want to travel there is an annual 2 day event in London. With some of the same speakers as the New York conference, but a few more from the UK.
